Introduction
In this paper
we
will study the third Painlev\’e equations $P_{111}(\alpha,\beta,\gamma, \delta)$$y’= \frac{1}{y}y^{\prime 2}-\frac{y’}{x}+\frac{\alpha y^{2}+\beta}{x}+\gamma y^{3}+\frac{\delta}{y}$, (1)
for $\gamma=0$ and $a\mathit{6}\neq 0$
.
The values of complex parameters $\alpha$,$\beta,\gamma,\delta$ ofthe third Painlev\’e equations
satisfy
one
of fourcases:
(Q)
a
$=0,\gamma=0$ (or $\beta=0,\delta=0$),$(D_{8})\gamma=0$, $\delta=0\alpha\beta\neq 0$
$(D_{7})\gamma=0$, $\alpha\delta\neq 0$ (or $\delta$ $=0,\beta\gamma\neq 0$),
$(D_{6})\gamma\delta\neq 0$.
In the
case
(Q),$\mathrm{f}1_{\mathrm{I}1}$are
sovable by quadraturs ([11], [23]).Since
allof solutionsof(Q)
are
classicalinUmemura’s meaning ([27]),we
do not include the equation(Q) in the Painleve equations. Gromak ([4]) also excluded the
case
(Q). Thetype $D_{6}$, which is generic case, is studied in many articles ([23], [18], [28]). The
equations of type $D_{7}$ and $D_{8}$
are
missed in most study of the third Painleveequation
so
far. Gromak studied the type $D_{7}$ in [2].Recently Sakai pointed out the significance ofthe type $D_{7}$ and $D_{8}$ in [24].
He showed that the spaces of the initial values for the type Dq, $D_{7}$ and $D_{8}$
are
different from each other. The vertical leaves becomeasum
of rationalcurves, whose intersection diagrams
are
the root lattices $D_{6}$, $D_{7}$ and $D_{8}$ ineach
case.
This is the origin ofthename
of each type. Moreover the Backlundtransformation
groups
of the equation oftype Dq, $D_{7}$ and $D_{8}$are
$W(A_{1}\oplus A_{1})$,$W(A_{1})$ and $\mathrm{Z}_{2}$, respectively. Prom Sakai’s viewpoint,
we
should study eight(not six) type of Painlev\’e equations.
This papar is asupplement of Okamoto’s series of four papers “Studies
on
the Painlev\’e equations” ([20], [21], [22], [23]) published in $1980\mathrm{s}$.
We willstudy Hamitonian structures, atransformation
group,
$\tau$-functions and specialsolutions oftype $D_{7}$
.
The type$D_{8}$ reduced to specialcase
of$D_{6}$ by aquadratictransformation. We will comment about the type $D_{8}$ in Theorem
3.1.
We will study the equation $P_{111}’(\alpha,\beta,\gamma, \delta)$
$q’= \frac{q^{\prime 2}}{q}-\frac{q’}{t}+\frac{\alpha q^{2}}{4t^{2}}+\frac{\beta}{4t}+\frac{\gamma q^{3}}{4t^{2}}+\frac{\delta}{4q}$ , (2)
数理解析研究所講究録 1239 巻 2001 年 22-40
which is equivalent to $P_{1\mathrm{I}1}$ by
$t=x^{2}$, $y=xq$. (3)
We will consider$P_{111}’$ instead of$P_{111}([23])$, because the action ofatransformaion
group
on
$P_{111}’$ is simplerthan $ffl_{11}$.
By change of variables
$x=\lambda x_{1}$, $y=\mu y_{1}$ (Ap $\neq 0$), (4)
we
can
normalize the parameter $(\alpha, \beta,\gamma, \delta)$. Essentially, the equations of type$D_{6}$ have two comlex parameters, the equations of type $D_{7}$ have
one
comlexparameter and the equations of type $D_{8}$ have
no
comlex parameters. For thetype $D_{7}$,
we can
take standard form$q’= \frac{q^{\prime 2}}{q}-\frac{q’}{t}-\frac{q^{2}}{t^{2}}+\frac{a}{t}-\frac{1}{q}$
.
(5)This equation is the main object in this paper.
An algebraic solution of the third Painleve equations
are
found byLukashe-vich ([11], [12]). Gromak classified all algebraic solutions of the third Painleve
equations not only for type $D_{6}$ but also for type $D_{7}([3], [4])$. If$a$ is an integer,
(5) has
one
and onlyone
algebraic solution. If $a$ is notan
integer, (5) hasno
rational solution. The equation oftype $D_{8}$ has two rational solutions.
The algebraic solutions ofPainleve equations
are
studied by many authors.There
are
many works by Belorussian school (see [5]). After Okamoto showedthat the transformation groups of Painleve equations are isomorphic to affine
Wyle groups, it iseasyto understand their works. Murata gives classificationof
algebraic solutions of the second, third and fourth Painleve equations in terms
of affine Wyle groups ([17], [18]). Kitaev-Law-McLeod [9] classified rational
solutions of the fifth Painleve equations. Mazzocco [15] classified rational
solu-tions of the sixth Painleve equations. Any algebraic solutions become rational
for the fifth Painleve equations (announcedin [30]). Algebraic solutions for the
sixth Painleve equations
are
very interesiting ([6], [7], [1], [14], [26], [19], [10])and they
are
not classified yet. From second to fifth Painleve equations, allalgebraic solutions turn to be rational except for type $D_{7}$.
All of algebraic solutions of (5)
are
transformed to each other by the affineWyle group $W(A_{1})$
.
But it is difficult to calculate all algebraic solutions by thedirect action of the affine Wyle group. If
we
consider $\tau$-functions, the actionbecomes very simple. The action of the affine Wyle group reduces to the Toda
equation
on
$\tau$-functions. For the second Painleve equations, theYablonskii-Vorob’ev polynomials give transformations of $\tau$-functions([29], [22]). There
are
similar polynomials for other Painleve equations ([22] for Painleve $\mathrm{I}\mathrm{V}$, [26]and [19] for type Dq, $\mathrm{V}$ and $\mathrm{V}\mathrm{I}$). Although the solution of the third Painleve
equations of type $D_{7}$ is algebraic, the action of the affine Wyle group is given
by polynomials. This is
an
analogue of Umemura’s polynomials for the sixthPainleve’ equations ([26]).
Yablonskii-Vorob’ev polynomials
or
Umemura’s polynomialsare
related toShur polynomials ([8], [25]). It is
an
open problem to representour
new
poly-nomials by Shur polynomials.
In section four,
we
will study transcendental classical functions of theequa-tionsoftype$D_{7}$
.
Thethird Painleve equationoftype$D_{7}$ have $0$ like the secondPainleve equation. The second Painleve equation has also
one
parameter andthe B\"a&lundtransformation
group
istheaffineWylegroup
$W(A_{1})$.
ThesecondPainleve equation has transcendental classical functions which
are
reduced toAiry functions ([27]).
On
the contrary, the third Painlev\’e equation oftype $D_{7}$does not have transcendental classical functions, followingtheidea of Umemura
and Watanabe. The third Painlev6 equation of type $D_{6}$ has transcendental
classical functions which
are
reduced to Bessel functions ([28]).The author would give thanks to Prof. H. Watanabe and Prof. H. Sakai for
fruitful discussions. Thiswork is supported inpartby Japan Societyfor the

Painleve
equation
In this section
we
will review basic factson
the third Painlev6 equations ([23]).We will write (1)
as
$ffl_{11}(\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\delta)$ and (2)as
$P_{111}’(\alpha,\beta, \gamma,\delta)$.
2.1
Fundamental transform
Although the third Painlev6equationshave fourcomplex parameters, essensially
they have two complex parameters by simple transformation.
Theorem 2.1. (1) By the change
of
variables$t=x^{2}$, $y=xq$, (6)
$ffl_{11}(\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\delta)$ and $P_{111}’(\alpha, \beta,\gamma,\delta)$
are
equivaliant.(2) By the change
of
variables$x=x_{1}$, $y= \frac{x}{y}1$’ (7)
$P_{111}’(\alpha,\beta,\gamma, \delta)$ changes to $P_{111}’(-\beta, -\alpha, -\delta, -\gamma)$
.
(3) By the change
of
variables$x=x_{1}^{2}$, $q=y_{1}^{2}$, (8)
$P_{\mathrm{I}11}’(\alpha,\beta,0,0)$ changes to $P_{111}’(0,0,2\alpha,2\beta)$
.
(4) By the change
of
variables$t=\lambda t_{1}$, $q=\mu q_{1}$ (9)
$P_{1\mathrm{I}1}’(\alpha,\beta,\gamma,\delta)$ changes to $P_{\mathrm{I}11}’(\lambda\alpha,\mu\lambda^{-1}\beta, \lambda^{2}\gamma,\mu^{2}\lambda^{-2}\delta)$
.
ByTheorem 2.1 (3), thethird Painleve equation oftype$D_{8}$ reduced to type
$D_{6}$
.
By Theorem 2.1 (4), the third Painleve equations $P_{111}’$ oftype $D_{7}$can
benormalized to (5).
2.2
Hamiltonian system
The Hamiltonian associated with (5) is
$H= \frac{1}{t}(f^{2}g^{2}-a_{1}fg+tg+\frac{1}{2}f)$ , (10)
(11)
where $f=q$ and $a=1+a_{1}([24])$. The Hamiltonian system
%(ai)
is$\{_{\frac{\frac{df}{dgdt}}{dt}=\frac{1}{t}(2fg^{2}-a_{1}g+\frac{1}{2})}=\frac{1}{-t}(2f^{2}g-a_{1}f+t),$
.
We take
an
autiliary Hamiltonian$h(t)=tH+a_{1}^{2}/4$. (12) Then
we
have $\{$ $f(t)=- \frac{1-2a_{1}h’(t)+2th’(t)}{4h(t)^{2}},$, $g(t)=h’(t)$. (13) Thereforewe
haveProposition 2.2. $h$
satisfies
thedifferential
equation$(th’(t))^{2}+4h’(t)^{2}$(th’$(t)-\mathrm{h}(\mathrm{t})$) $+a_{1}h’(t)- \frac{1}{4}=0$. (14)
Inversely, for asolution of$h(t)$ of (14),
we
have asolution $(f,g)$ of (11) by(13) if
$\frac{d^{2}h}{dt^{2}}\neq 0$.
Proposition 2.3. TAere exists the one-tO-One correspondence
from
a solution$h$
of
(14) anda
solution $(f,g)$of
(11).The equation (14) admits asingular solution of the form
$h=\lambda t+\mu$,
$- \frac{1}{4}+a_{1}\lambda-4\lambda^{2}\mu=0$.
2.3
Transformation group
The transformation group of the third Painleve equation of type $D_{7}$ is
isomor-phic to the affine Wyle group $W(A_{1})([24])$. The geneators of$W(A_{1})$
are
givenby
$\pi$ :$a_{1}arrow-a_{1}$, (15)
$s:a_{1}arrow-1-a_{1}$
.
(16)We will show the explicit expression ofthe action of $W(A_{1})$.
Theorem 2.4. 1)
If
$(f(t),g(t))$satisfies
$H(a_{1})$,$(F, G)=(-f(-t)+ \frac{a_{1}}{g(-t)}-\frac{1}{2g(-t)^{2}},$ $-g(-t))$
satisfies
$H(-a_{1})$.
$\mathit{2})If(f(t),g(t))$
satisfies
$H(a_{1})$,$(F, G)=(-2tg(-t)$ , $\frac{f(-t)}{2t})$
satisfies
$H(-1-a_{1})$.
By Theorem 2.4,
we
have aB\"acklund transformation which gives$\pi$$\circ s:a_{1}arrow a_{1}+1$,
as
follows:$(f,g) arrow(\frac{-2t^{2}}{f(t)^{2}}+\frac{2(1+a_{1})t}{f(t)}-2tg(t)$,$\frac{f(t)}{2t})$
.
(17)This transformation is found by Gromak ([2]).
2.4
r-function
We define the $\tau$-function of$P_{\mathrm{I}11}’$
.
For any solution (f,g), the $\tau$-function $\tau(t)$ isdefined by
$\frac{d}{dt}\log\tau(t)=H(f,g,$t), (18)
uP to constant multiplication.
Theorem 2.5. The $\tau$
-function
$\mathrm{r}(\mathrm{t})$ is holomorphic in $\mathbb{C}-\{0\}$ and has simplezeros.
In most papers, the third Painle6 equations of type $D_{6}$
are
representedas
monodromy preserving deformation. Recently Kawamuko and Sakai showed
that theequationsoftype $D_{7}$ and $D_{8}$
are
representedas
monodromy preservingdeformations. Therefore the holomorphicity of the $\tau$-function is followed from
Miwa’s result ([16], [13]).
Here
we
will give direct proofof the holomorphicityof the $\tau$-function Prom(14), if the auxiliary Hamiltonian $h$ has apole at $t=t_{0}(t_{0}\neq 0)$,
$h \sim\frac{t_{0}}{t-t_{0}}+O((t-t_{0})^{0})$,
where $O((t-t_{0})^{0})$ is the Landau’s $O$
.
Thereforewe
have$H= \frac{1}{t}(h-\frac{a_{1}^{2}}{4})\sim\frac{1}{t-t_{0}}+O((t-t_{0})^{0})$
.
By the definiion of the $\tau$-function, $\tau(t)$ has asimple
zero
at $t=t_{0}$.
2.5
Toda equation
Let h$=h(t,$f,g,$a_{1})$ be
an
auxiliaryHamiltonian (12). Wedifineanew
auxiliaryfunction $h_{1}$ by
$h_{1}=h-fg+ \frac{2a_{1}+1}{4}$
.
(19)We set $(F, G)$ is the Backlund transformation of $(f,g)$ by $\pi\circ s$:
$(F,G)=( \frac{-2t^{2}}{f^{2}}+\frac{2(1+a_{1})t}{f}-2tg$,$\frac{f}{2t})$ .
As the
same
as
(13),we
have$\{$
$f=2th_{1}’$,
$-1+2h_{1}’+2a_{1}h_{1}’+2xh_{1}’$
$g=\overline{8th_{1}^{\prime 2}}$.
(20)
Lemma 2.6. $h_{1}(t, f,g, a_{1})$ equals the auxiliary Hamiltonian $h(t, F, G, a_{1}+1)$.
Proof
We have$H(t, F,G,a_{1}+1)=H(t, f,g,a_{1})- \frac{fg}{t}$ (21)
by direct calculation. Therefore
$h(t, F, G,a_{1}+1)$ $=$ tH$(t, F,G, a_{1}+1)+ \frac{(a_{1}+1)^{2}}{4}$ $=$ tH$(t, f,g, a_{1})-fg+ \frac{(a_{1}+1)^{2}}{4}$
$=$ $h(t, f,g,a_{1})-fg+ \frac{2a_{1}+1}{4}=h_{1}(t, f,g, a_{1})$.
$\square$
We set $X=fg$
.
From (13)we
have$X= \frac{-2th’+2a_{1}h’-1}{4h’}$. (22)
From (20)
we
have$X= \frac{2th_{1}’+2(a_{1}+1_{\grave{)}}h_{1}’-1}{4h_{1}},$. (23)
We will consider the sequece ofsolutions transformed by
$\ell=\pi\circ s$, $\ell^{2}$, $\ell^{3}$, $\ell^{4}$, $\ldots$
For
an
fixed solution $(f_{0},g_{0})=(f,g)$,we
set$(f_{n},g_{n})=(\ell^{n}(f),\ell^{n}(g))$,
which is asolution for $a_{1}+n$. Let $\tau_{n}$ be afunction defeined by
$\frac{d}{dt}\tau_{n}=H(t, f_{n}, g_{n}, a_{1}+n)$.
Theorem 2.7. $\tau_{n}$ satisfy the Toda equation
$\frac{d}{dt}t\frac{d}{dt}\log\tau_{n}=c(n)\frac{\tau_{n-1}\tau_{n+1}}{\tau_{n}^{2}}$ , (24)
for
some constants $c(n)$.
Proof.
We set $X_{n}=\mathrm{f}\mathrm{n}g\mathrm{n}$.
Prom (21)we
have$H(t, f_{n+1},g_{n+1},a_{1}+n+1)=H(t, f_{n},g_{n}, a_{1}+n)- \frac{X_{n}}{t}$ .
Therefore
$X_{n}=t \frac{d}{dt}\log\frac{\tau_{n}}{\tau_{n+1}}$
.
(25)Let $h_{n}$ be the auxiliary Hamiltonian for $(f_{n},g_{n})$
.
Prom (22),we
have$X_{n}= \frac{-2th_{n}’+2(a_{1}+n)h_{n}’-1}{4h_{n}},$
.
Changing $a_{1}$ to$a_{1}-1$ in (23),
we
have$X_{n-1}= \frac{2th_{n}’+2(a_{1}+n)h_{n}’-1}{4h_{n}’}$
.
Therefore
we
have$X_{n-1}-X_{n}= \frac{th_{n}’}{h_{n}},=t\frac{d}{dt}\log h_{n}’$. (26)
Prom (25) and (26),
we
obtain$h_{n}’=c(n) \frac{\tau_{n-1}\tau_{n+1}}{\tau_{n}^{2}}$
.
$\square$

3.1
Algebraic solution
Theorem 3.1. The third Painleve equation
of
type $D_{8}$ does not havetrancen-dental classical solutiotes. The third Painleve equation
of
type $D_{8}$ has tworatiO-nal solutions. There
are no
more
algebraic solutions.The first part
comes
ffom [28] and the second partcomes
from ([18]) bythe transformation in Theorem 2.1 (3). Actually, $ffl_{11}(\alpha,\beta, 0,0)$ has constant
solutions $y=\pm\sqrt{-\beta}/\alpha$
.
Lukashevich found special algebraic solutions and Gromak classified all
al-gebraic solutions for type $D_{7}$:
Theorem 3.2. $([\mathit{1}\mathit{1}J, [12])$ In
case
$a_{1}=-1$, $H(a_{1})$ hasan
algebraic solution$f(t)=-t^{2/3}$, $g(t)= \frac{1}{6t^{2/3}}-\frac{1}{2t^{1/3}}$
.
$H(a_{1})$ has
one
and onlyone
algebraic solutionif
$a_{1}$ isan
integer. Thesealge-braic solutions
are
transformed
by the the Bdcklundtransformation
$\ell^{n}$.3.2
Sequence of algebraic solution
First few algebraic solutions in Thorem 3.2 by the Backlund transformation $\ell$
is as followes. If $a_{1}=0$ $(f,g)=( \frac{-t^{\frac{1}{3}}}{3}-t^{\frac{2}{3}}$,$\frac{-1}{2t^{\frac{1}{3}}})$ . If$a_{1}=1$ $(f,g)=( \frac{-5t^{2}\S-12t-9t^{\frac{4}{3}}}{(1+3t^{1}\S)^{2}}$,$\frac{-1-3t^{\frac{1}{3}}}{6t^{2}\S})$ , If $a_{1}=2$, $(f, g)=( \frac{-35x^{1}\S-315x^{2}\S-990x-1350x^{\frac{4}{3}}-891x^{\frac{5}{3}}-243x^{2}}{3(5+12x^{\frac{1}{3}}+9x^{\frac{2}{3}})^{2}}$, $\frac{-5-12t^{\frac{1}{3}}-9t^{\frac{2}{3}}}{2(1+3t^{\frac{1}{3}})^{2}t^{\frac{1}{3}}})$
We
can
calculate $\tau$-functions of algebraic solutions by the Toda equation(24)
more
easily. Fromnow on we
set $\tau_{n}(t)$as
the $\tau$-function of the algebraicsolution for $a_{1}=n$.
Theorem 3.3. Let $s=3t^{1/3}$. Then we have
$\tau_{n}(t)=\exp(-\frac{1}{2}ns-\frac{s^{2}}{8})s^{-d_{\mathfrak{n}}/12}S_{n}(s)$,
up to constant multiplication. Here $d_{n}$ is
$d_{n}=\{$
$9n^{2}-1$ $n$ is even,
$9n^{2}-4$ $n$ is odd.
(27)
$S_{n}(s)$ are monic polynomials
of
$s$ with integralcoefficients.
$S_{n}(0)\neq 0$ and$nS_{n}(s)^{2}+sS_{n}(s)^{2}-2S_{n}(s)S_{n}’(s)+2sS_{n}’(s)^{2}-2sS_{n}(s)S_{n}’(s)$
$=\{$
$sS_{n+1}(s)S_{n-1}(s)$ $n$ is even, (28)
$S_{n+1}(s)S_{n-1}(s)$ $n$ is odd.
Proof.
Weassume
that$\tau_{n}(t)=\exp(-\frac{3}{2}t^{1/3}-\frac{9}{8}t^{2/3})t^{-c_{n}/36}T_{n}(s)$.
By the Toda equation (24)
we
have arecurrent relation$nT_{n}(s)^{2}+sT_{n}(s)^{2}-2T_{n}(s)T_{n}’(s)+2sT_{n}’(s)^{2}-2sT_{n}(s)T_{n}’(s)$ (29) $=T_{n+1}(s)T_{n-1}(s)$, and $2c_{n}+12=c_{n-1}+c_{n+1}$. We set $T_{n}(s)=a_{0}^{(n)}+a_{1}^{(n)}s+a_{2}^{(n)}s^{2}+O(s^{3})$.
29
Then the left hand side of (29) is
$(na_{0}^{(n)}-2a_{1}^{(n)})a_{0}^{(n)}+((a_{0}^{(n)})^{2}+2na_{0}^{(n)}a_{1}^{(n)}-8a_{0}^{(n)}a_{2}^{(n)})s+O(s^{2})$.
We will
see
that if$n$ is even, $na_{0}^{(n)}-2a_{1}^{(n)}=0$ and $(a_{0}^{(n)})^{2}+2na_{0}^{(n)}a_{1}^{(n)}$-$8a_{0}^{(n)}a_{2}^{(n)}$ is
an
odd integer and that if$n$ is odd, $na_{0}^{(n)}-2a_{1}^{(n)}=0$ isan
oddinteger by induction.
If$n$ is odd and $T_{n}(0)=a_{0}^{(n)}$ is
an
odd integer, $na_{0}^{(n)}-2a_{1}^{(n)}=0$ isan
oddinteger. Prom (29)
we
have$na_{0}^{(n)}-2a_{1}^{(n)}=a_{0}^{(n-1)}a_{0}^{(n+1)}$.
Therefore $a_{0}^{(n+1)}$ is also
an
odd integer.Assume that $n$ is
even
and $T_{n}(0)=a_{0}^{(n)}$ isan
odd integer. We will show $na_{0}^{(n)}-2a_{1}^{(n)}=0$ later. Then $(1+n^{2})(a_{0}^{(n)})^{2}-8a_{0}^{(n)}a_{2}^{(n)}$ isan
odd integer.Therefore if
we
set$\{$
$S_{n}(s)=T_{n}(s)$ $\mathrm{n}$ is even,
$S_{n}(s)= \frac{T_{n}(s)}{s}$ $\mathrm{n}$ is odd,
we
have $S_{n}(0)$ isan
odd integer.We set
$\tau_{n}(t)=\exp(-\frac{3}{2}t^{1/3}-\frac{9}{8}t^{2/3})t^{-d_{n}/36}S_{n}(s)$
.
Then $S_{n}$ satisfy (28) and $d_{n}$ satisfy (27).
Now
we
will show that $na_{0}^{(n)}-2a_{1}^{(n)}=0$ when $n$ iseven.
$\frac{d}{dt}$lote$\tau_{n}\sim-\frac{d_{n}}{36}\frac{1}{t}+k_{1}t^{-2/3}+k_{2}t^{-1/3}+O(t^{0})$,
where
$k_{1}$ $=$ $\frac{a_{1}^{(n)}}{a_{0}^{(n)}}-\frac{n}{2}$,
$k_{2}$ $=$ $- \frac{3}{4}-\frac{3(a_{1}^{(n)})^{2}}{(a_{0}^{(n)})^{2}}+\frac{6a_{2}^{(n)}}{a_{0}^{(n)}}$
.
Therefore the auxiliary hamiltonian $h$ is the form
$h \sim\frac{9n^{2}-d_{n}}{36}+k_{1}t^{1/3}+k_{2}t^{2/3}+O(t)$
.
By (14)
$(th’(t))^{2}+4h’(t)^{2}(th’(t)-h(t))+nh’(t)- \frac{1}{4}=\frac{(4-9n^{2}+d_{n})k_{1}^{2}}{81}t^{-4/3}+O(t^{-1})$.
Thus when $n$ is even,
we
have$k_{1}= \frac{a_{1}^{(n)}}{a_{0}^{(n)}}-\frac{n}{2}=0$.
By Theorem 2.5, $S_{n}(s)$ have simple
zeros.
The polynomials $S_{n}(s)$are
ana-logueofYablonskii-Vorob’evpolynomialsfor the second Painleve equations. It is
aconjecture that $S_{n}(s)$
can
be represented by Shur polynomials likeYablonskii-Vorob’ev polynomials ([8]).
We will list $S_{n}(s)$ for $n=0,1,2,3,4,5$.
$S_{0}(s)=1$, $S_{1}(s)=1$, $S_{2}(s)=s+1$, $S_{3}(s)=s^{2}+4s+5$, $S_{4}(s)=s^{4}+10s^{3}+40s^{2}+70s+35$, $S_{5}(s)=s^{6}+20s^{5}+175s^{4}+840s^{3}+2275s^{2}+3220s+1925$.
4Transcendental classical solutions
4.1
Main
Theorem
(30)
ThethirdPainleve equations have classical solutions writtenbyBessel functions.
The third Painleve’ equations of type $D_{6}$ is in [24].
TheHamiltonian form ofthe third Painleve equations of type $D_{6}$
as
follows([28]):
$\{_{t\frac{}{dt}=-2qp^{2}+2pq-v_{1}p+\frac{1}{2}(v_{1}+v_{2})}^{t\frac{dq}{d_{p}^{t}}=2q^{2}p-q^{2}+v_{1}q+t}’$ .
Umemura and Watanabe show that (30) has transcendental classical solutions
if and only if$v_{1}+v_{2}$
or
$v_{1}-v_{2}$ isan even
integer. For example, if $v_{1}+v_{2}=0$,we have classical solutions$p=0$ and
$t \frac{dq}{dt}=-q^{2}+v_{1}q+t$. (31)
We will introduce
anew
variable $u$ by$q= \frac{v_{1}}{2}+t\frac{d}{dt}(\log u)$.
Then (31) turns to be the linear equation
$\frac{d^{2}u}{dt^{2}}+\frac{1}{t}\frac{du}{dt}-\frac{1}{t^{2}}(t+\frac{v_{1}^{2}}{4})u=0$,
which is equivalent to Bessel’s equation.
If$v_{1}+v_{2}$
or
$v_{1}-v_{2}$ isan even
integer, there exist aBacklund transformationon
(30),we can
reduce to thecase
$v_{1}+v_{2}=0$. Therefore any transcendentalclassical solutions
can
be represented by Bessel functions.The Backlund transformation group of the third Painleve equations oftype $D_{6}$ is the affine Wyle
group
$\ovalbox{\tt\small REJECT} \mathrm{T}^{\prime^{\ovalbox{\tt\small REJECT}}}(A.)\mathrm{e}\mathrm{I}\ovalbox{\tt\small REJECT} \mathrm{I}^{\ovalbox{\tt\small REJECT}}(A.)$ and walls of this action is the set{
$(v_{1},v_{2})\in \mathbb{C}|v_{1}+v_{2}$or
$v_{1}-v_{2}$ isan even integer}
.For other Painleve equations (second, fourth, fifth and sixth), they have
tran-scendental classical solutions
on
the walls ofaction ofthe affine Wyle group.The third Painleve equations of type $D_{7}$ has
one
parameter $a$ and theBacklund transformation
group
is the affine Wyle group $W(A_{1})$. Hence wemay expect that the equation (5) has transcendental classical solutions
on
thewalls. But the this expectation is incorrect. We will show that
Theorem 4.1. The third Painlevi equations
of
type $D_{7}$ do not havetranscen-dental classical solutions.
In [2] algebraic solutions of the third Painleve equations of type $D_{7}$
are
classified.
Combined
with Theorem 4.1,we
haveTheorem 4.2. The third Painlevi equations
of
type $D_{7}$ have classical solutionsif
and onlyif
$a$ isan
integer.If
$a$ isan
integer, (5) has onlyone
algebraicsolutions with three-sheeted covering.
4.2
Invariant divisor
In this section
we
will show akey lemmafor Theorem 4.1.Let $K$ be
an
ordinary differential field which isan
extention of $\mathbb{C}(t)$, thefield ofrational functions of$t$
.
Let $K[f,g]$ be the polynimial ringover
$K$ in twoindependent variables $f$ and $g$
.
We consider the following derivation $X(a)$on
$K[f,g]$:
$X(a)=t \frac{\partial}{\partial t}+(2f^{2}g-af+t)\frac{\partial}{\partial f}-(2fg^{2}-ag+\frac{1}{2})\frac{\partial}{\partial g}$
.
(33)Thedifferential ring $(K[f,g],X(a))$ represents (11).
In [27], Umemura and Watanabe introduced the condition (J) for $X(a)$
as
follows:
(J) For any ordinary differential field extension $K/\mathbb{C}(t)$, there exists
no
prin-cipal ideal I of$K[f,g]$ such that O $\subsetarrow I$ C, $K[f,g]$ and $X(a)I\subset I$
.
Thefollowing Proposition is the key in this paper.
Proposition 4.3. The derivation $X(a)$ does not satisfy the condition (J).
Proof.
Assume
that there exists aprincipal ideal I of$K[f,$g] which is invariantunder the action of$X(a)$
.
Let F in $K[f,g]$ be agenerator if I. Thenwe
have$X(a)F=GF$, (33)
for
some
G $\in K[f,g]$.
We will show there isno
such polynomial F in $K[f,g]$ insix steps.
Step 1. Two gradings in $K[f,g]$:
We will introduce two gradings in $K[f,g]$
.
At first,we
define the weightsof $f$ and $g$ to be -1 and 2respectively. The weight of amonomial $af^{:}g^{j}$ in
$K[f,g]$ is $2j-i$ for any $a\in K(a\neq 0)$
.
Let $R_{d}$ be the $K$-linear subspace of$K[f,g]$ generated
over
$K$ by all the monomials of weight $d$.
$R_{-d}=K[f^{2}g]f^{d}$,$R_{2d}=K[f^{2}g]g^{d}$, $R_{2d-1}=K[f^{2}g]fg^{d}$, for any non-negative integer $d$ and
$K[f,g]=\oplus R_{d}d\in \mathrm{Z}$’ $R_{d}\cdot R_{d’}=R_{d+d’}\backslash$
.
We define three homogeneous derivations $X_{-2}$,$X_{0}$,$X_{1}$ by
$X_{1}=(2f^{2}g+t) \frac{\partial}{\partial f}-2fg^{2}\frac{\partial}{\partial g}$,
$x_{-2}x_{0}$ $==$ $t \frac{\partial}{\partial}-a.f\frac{\partial}{\partial f}+ag\frac{\partial}{\partial g}-\frac{1t}{2}\frac{\partial}{\partial g}$
,
We have $X(a)=X_{-2}+X_{0}+X_{1}$ and each $X_{i}$ maps $R_{d}$ to $R_{d+:}$.
In the second grading,
we
set the weights of $f$ and $g$ to be 2and -1re-spectively. The weight of amonomial $af^{:}g^{j}$ in $K[f,g]$ is $2i-j$ for any $a\in K$
$(a\neq 0)$
.
Let $R_{d}’$ be the$K$-linear subspace of$K[f,g]$ generatedover
$K$ by all themonomials ofweight $d$. $R_{-d}’=K[fg^{2}]g^{d}$, $R_{2d}’=K[fg^{2}]f^{d}$, $R_{2d-1}’=K[fg^{2}]f^{d}g$,
for any non-negative integer $d$ and
$K[f,g]=\oplus R_{d}’d\in \mathrm{Z}$’ $R_{d}’\cdot R_{d}’,$ $=R_{d+d’}’$.
We define three homogeneous derivations $X_{-2}’,X_{0}’$,$X\mathrm{i}$ by
$X_{1}’$ $=$ $2f^{2}g \frac{\partial}{\partial f}-(\frac{1}{2}+2fg^{2})\frac{\partial}{\partial g}$, $X_{0}’$ $=$ $t \frac{\partial}{\partial t}-af\frac{\partial}{\partial f}+ag\frac{\partial}{\partial g}$,
$X_{-2}’$ $=$ $t \frac{\partial}{\partial f}$.
We have $X(a)=X_{-2}’+X_{0}’+X_{1}’$ and each $X_{i}’$ maps $R_{d}’$ to $R_{d+:}’$.
The both gradings
come
from the Newton polygon of $X(a)$. The Newtonpolygon of$X(a)$ is
as
follows:$f$
Here
an
integral point $(i,j)$ representsthe derivation$bf^{:+1}g^{j}\partial/\partial p+cf^{:}g^{j+1}\partial/\partial g$$(b,c\in K)$
.
Since
the Newton polygon of type $D_{7}$ is different from the polygon oftype $D_{6}$ in [28],we
choose different gradings.We will determine the polynimial $G$
.
Since the highest part $X_{1}$ and $X_{1}’$are
of weight one, $G$ is at most ofweight
one
in the both degree. Therefore$G=\lambda fg+\mu$
for
some
$\lambda,\mu\in K$.
Step $\ell$
.
the highest part of F with respect to the first gradingWe will consider the highest part of $F$
.
Let $F$ beasum
of homobeneouspolynomials with respect tothe first grading
$F=F_{m’}’+F_{m’+1}+\cdots+F_{1}+\cdots+F_{m}$
.
$(m’\leq m)$$F_{j}\in R_{j}$, Frpl,$F_{m}\neq 0$ and if$m=m’=0$, $F_{0}\not\in K$
.
The homogeneous part of(33) is
$X_{1}F_{k-1}+X_{0}F_{k}+X_{-2}F_{k+2}=\lambda fgF_{k-1}+\mu F_{k}$
.
(33)Firstly
we
claim that $F_{m}$ is not divisible by $f$.
If$F_{m}$ is divisible by $f$, thereexists
an
integer $k\geq 1$$F_{m}=Qf^{k}$, $f\{Q$, $Q\in K[f,g]$
.
Since
$X_{1}(F_{m})=\lambda fgF_{m}$,
we
have$2f^{k+2}g \frac{\partial Q}{\partial f}+tf^{k}\frac{\partial Q}{\partial f}-2f^{k+1}g^{2}\frac{\partial Q}{\partial g}+(2kf^{k+1}g+ktf^{k-1})Q=\lambda gf^{k+1}Q$.
This
means
$f|Q$, which is contradiction.Therefore $m$ is anon-negative and
even
integer. We set $m=2p$ and$F_{2p}=g^{p} \sum_{j=0}^{k}b_{j}(f^{2}g+t)^{j}$,
for $b_{0}$,$b_{1}$,
\ldots ,$b_{k}\in K$. Then
we
have$X_{1}(F_{2p})=fg^{p+1} \sum_{j=0}^{k}2(j-p)b_{j}(f^{2}g+t)^{j}$
.
Hence
we
have $\lambda=2(j$ -p) for anon-negative integer j and$F_{2p}=b(f^{2}g+t)^{p+\lambda/2}g^{p}$ (35)
for $b\in K$
.
When $F$ is
an
invariant polynomial, $b^{-1}F$ is alsoan
invariant polynomialfor any $b\in K$
.
Hencewe
mayassume
$b=1$. Promnow
on,we
assume
$b=1$ in(35).
Step 3. $\mathrm{F}2\mathrm{p}-\mathrm{i}$ and $\mathrm{F}2\mathrm{p}-2$
We will determine$F_{2p-1}$ and $\mathrm{F}2\mathrm{p}-2$. By (34), $F_{2p-1}\mathrm{F}2\mathrm{p}-2$ and $\mathrm{F}2\mathrm{p}_{-}3$ satisfy
the equations $X_{1}(F_{2p-1})+X_{0}(F_{2p})$ $X_{1}(F_{2p-2})+X_{0}(F_{2p-1})$ We
can
set $=$ $\lambda fgF_{2p-1}+\mu F_{2p}$, (36) $=$ $\lambda fgF_{2p-2}+\mu F_{2p-1}$. (37) $F_{2p-1}$ $=$ $g^{p}f \sum_{j=0}^{k_{1}}d_{j}L^{j}$, $F_{2p-2}$ $=$ $g^{p-1} \sum_{j=0}^{k_{2}}e_{j}L^{j}$,for $d_{j}$,$e_{j}\in K$ and $L=f^{2}g+t$. By (35)
we
have$\mu F_{2p}$ -Xl$( \mathrm{F}2\mathrm{p})=(\mu+\frac{a\lambda}{2})L^{p+\frac{\lambda}{2}}g^{p}-(a+1)t(p+\frac{\lambda}{2})L^{p+\frac{\lambda}{2}-1}g^{p}$. (38)
Moreover
we
have$X_{1}(F_{2p-1})-\lambda fgF_{2p-1}$
$=g^{p} \sum_{j=0}^{k}d_{j}[(2-\lambda-2p+2j)L^{j+1}+(\lambda-1+2p-2j)tL^{j}]$ .
(39)
Comparing (38) and (39),
we
have$k=p+\lambda/2-1$. But in thiscase
thecoefficientof $L^{p+\lambda/2-1}g^{p}$ of $X_{1}(F_{2p-1})-\mathrm{X}\mathrm{f}\mathrm{g}\mathrm{F}2\mathrm{p}-\mathrm{i}$ becomes
zero.
Hencewe
have$\mu+\frac{a\lambda}{2}=0$. (40)
Moreover
we
have$4=0$, $d_{1}=0$,$\ldots$,$d_{k-1}=0$,$d_{k}=-(a+1)(p+ \frac{\lambda}{2})$ .
Finally
we
have$F_{2p-1}=- \frac{1}{2}(a+1)(2p+\lambda)g^{p}f(f^{2}g+t)^{p+\lambda/2-1}$
.
In the
same
waywe
obtain$F_{2p-2}=- \frac{1}{8}(a+1)^{2}(2p+\lambda-2)(2p+\lambda)tg^{p-1}(f^{2}g+t)^{p+\lambda/2-2}$,
from (37).
Step
4.
The highest part of$F$ with respect to the second gradingLet
us
decompose $F$with respect to the second grading$F=F_{n}’,$ $+F_{n+1}’,+\cdots+F_{1}’+\cdots+F_{n}’$
.
$(n’\leq n)$$F_{j}’\in R_{j}’$, $F_{n}’,$,$F_{n}’\neq 0$ and if $n=n’=0$, $F_{0}’\not\in K$.
In the
same
way $F_{n}’$ is not divisible by $g$ and $n$ isan even
integer $2q$. Thereexists anon-negative integer $k$ such that A $=2(q-k)$ and
$F_{2q}’=c( \frac{1}{2}+fg^{2})^{q-\lambda/2}f^{q}$ (41)
for $c\in K$
.
The Newton polygon of$F$ has the following figure:
$f$
The side $AC$ represents $F_{2p}$ and the side $BC$ represents $F_{2q}’$
.
Therefore the coordinates of $A$,$B$are
$(0,p)$,$(q, 0)$ and the coordinates of$C$are
(
$2p+\lambda$,$2p+ \frac{1}{2}\lambda)=(2q-\frac{1}{2}\lambda,$$2q-\lambda)$.
Namely
$p+ \frac{3}{4}\lambda=q$
.
(42)Step
5.
$F_{2q-1}’$ and $F_{2q-2}’$We
can
calculate $F_{2q-1}’$ and $F_{2q-2}’$ in thesame
wayas
the Step 3:$F_{2q-1}’= \frac{1}{2}a(\lambda-2q)f^{q}g(fg^{2}+\frac{1}{2})^{q-\lambda/2-1}$ ,
$F_{2q-2}’=- \frac{1}{16}a^{2}(\lambda-2q)(\lambda-2q+2)f^{q-1}(fg^{2}+\frac{1}{2})^{q-\lambda/2-2}$
We will compare $\mathrm{F}2\mathrm{P}-\mathrm{i}$ and $F_{2q-1}’$. From (42)
we
have$f^{2p+\lambda-1}g^{2p+\lambda/2-1}=f^{2q-\lambda/2-1}g^{2q-\lambda-1}$ .
The coeffiecient of this monomial in $F$ is
$- \frac{1}{2}(a+1)(2p+\lambda)=\frac{1}{2}a(\lambda-2q)$
.
From (42)
we
have$\lambda=-\frac{4p}{a+2}$. (43)
Step 6. $F_{2p-3}’$
$F_{2p-3}’$ is determined by the equation
$X_{1}(F_{2p-3}’)+X_{0}(F_{2p-2}’)+X_{-2}(F_{2p}’)= \lambda fgF_{2p-3}’-\frac{a\lambda}{2}F_{2p-2}$’
We may
assume
that $F_{2p-3}’$ has the form$F_{2p-3}’=f^{p-1}g \sum_{j=0}^{k_{3}}h_{j}M^{j}$,
where $M=fg^{2}+1/2$
.
Thenwe
have$\mu F_{2p-2}’-X_{0}(F_{2p-2}’)-X_{-2}(F_{2p}’)=\sum_{j=0}^{3}s_{j}f^{q-1}M^{q-\lambda/2-j}$,
where
$s_{0}=(- \frac{1}{2}\lambda+2q)t$, $s_{1}=( \frac{1}{4}\lambda-\frac{1}{2}q)t$, $s_{2}=-al$, $s_{3}=al(1+ \frac{\lambda}{4}-\frac{q}{2})$ ,
and
$l=- \frac{1}{16}a^{2}(\lambda-2q)(\lambda-2q+2)$.
For any positive integer $s$
we
have$X_{1}(g^{p-1}M^{q-\lambda/2-\epsilon})-\lambda fg(g^{p-1}M^{q-\lambda/2-\epsilon})$
$=(2s-4)f^{q-1}M^{q-\lambda/2-s+1}+( \frac{3}{2}-s)f^{q-1}M^{q-\lambda/2-s}$.
(44) Therefore $k_{3}=q-\lambda/2-1$
.
Setting $s=1$ in (44),we
have$X_{1}(g^{p-1}M^{q-\lambda/2-1})-\lambda fg(g^{p-1}M^{q-\lambda/2-1})$
$=-2f^{q-1}M^{q-\lambda/2}+ \frac{1}{2}f^{q-1}M^{q-\lambda/2-1}$ .
Therefore
$h_{q-\lambda/2-1}=- \frac{s_{0}}{2}$ (45)
Setting $s=2$ in (45),
we
have$X_{1}(g^{p-1}M^{q-\lambda/2-2})- \lambda fg(g^{p-1}M^{q-\lambda/2-2})=-\frac{1}{2}f^{q-1}M^{q-\lambda/2-2}$
and the term $f^{q-1}M^{q-\lambda/2-1}$ does not appear. Therefore
$\frac{1}{2}h_{q-\lambda/2-1}=s_{1}$. (46)
Comparing (45) and (46),
we
have$- \frac{s_{0}}{4}=s_{1}$
.
Namely $\lambda=0$
.
Hencewe
have $\mu=0$ and $p=q=0$.
Thismeans
$F\in K$. SinceI $\mathrm{C}Karrow$
’this
is contradiction. $\square$4.3
Proof of
Theorem
4.1
The derivation $X(a)$ satisfies the condition (J) for any $a$
.
By Theorem 1.1 in[27]
we see
that every transcendental solution of the equation of type $D_{7}$ is non-classical.By aquadratic transformation, the third Painleve equation oftype $D_{8}$
re-duces to athird Painlev\’e equation oftype $D_{6}$
.
The third Painlev\’e equation oftype $D_{8}$
$y’= \frac{1}{y}y^{\prime 2}-\frac{y’}{x}+\frac{\alpha y^{2}+\beta}{x}$
has two algebraic solutions $y=\sqrt{-\beta}/\alpha$ and
no
transcendental classicalsolu-tions.
Thus
we
classified classical solutions of the third Painleve equation of alltype.
